The kickstart file is only found once the initrd is first loaded via isolinux, so this is after the isolinux stuff has over to the initrd, by passing the ks=cdrom option the loader will check the CD/DVD once its mounted inside Linux for ks.cfg in /. Files found in isolinux are not visible to Linux as they are a different CD layer. -----Original Message----- From: Philip Prindeville [mailto:philipp_subx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 4:39 PM To: Shawn Starr Cc: anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Default for ks=cdrom Ok, I've only been working on writing Kickstart images for a couple of days now, so... what is / mapped to? The isolinux.img filesystem? Is that where you're saying the ks.cfg needs to be? Repacking the isolinux.img is (for me, anyway) a fair amount of work that's best avoided... I'd just as soon have the default location for the file be /mnt/source/ks.cfg or /mnt/source/isolinux/ks.cfg ... Am I alone in this? -Philip Shawn Starr wrote: > I thought it tries the toplevel '/' by default. > > -----Original Message----- > From: anaconda-devel-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx > [mailto:anaconda-devel-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Philip > Prindeville > Sent: Tuesday, May 09, 2006 4:03 PM > To: anaconda-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx > Subject: Default for ks=cdrom > > > Forgot to ask...
